Correct, he does do alot of tank warfare, and thus dies alot.  But you only see the times he dies to a single shot, which happens the majority of the time.  Any time someone just has track or turret damage, they can choose to disappear.

I dont want this to be about a person though, I am looking to have the problem corrected.  As kilroy likes to say, if he's allowed to do it, he'll keep doing it.
Pot meet kettle.  Kilroy does the same thing.  And admits to it...

Wonder if Kilroy has his Lynksis sitting next to his keyboard  :joystick:...... :P

Oh well, at least Hitech isn't offering $1000 each month for the most kills of battle tanks with an M8. That would bring out some epic funny stuff......yep,yep, yep and if we can get him to do that for FIGHTERS would be plastered across ch200 every night. I hear people now days use a software cable jiggler with some kind of a hotkey in all those other games. And like Hitech's AI aren't bad enough flying like immortal porpoises with aimbots for eyes.... :O

Plug pulling is like making it with a goat.  It may feel good to some people, but it sure as heck ain't right.

Im not so sure its plug pulling in this scenario.  He doesnt time out or disconnect from the game as he reups in a tank from a different spawn in about the time it would take to select that base and spawn.  There is no reconnect to game delay.  He's found a way to end mission without a ditch.  I notice in the video he is constantly turning his engine off and on while driving.   Not sure if thats related.

That is not related to it. The engine on/off technique is for listening for other gv's.

Plug pulling isn't cheating. Apparently it's an alternative method to end a sortie for some folks.

DR7 is a standup guy. I would bet the farm on his integrity.

No one has equated the C word with plug pulling as obviously stated it is allowed. With that said I have seen it. I too am a stand up guy. Poof tank gone, no kill even though there is damage and no kill registered...
